FLOATING ABOVE SOUTH DAKOTA
just about the only time epson tried to "tune out" instead of listening intently was when benjamin clayborn blowhard was giving a speech. this time,though, he was speaking about one of epson's favorite states , South Dakota, and epson felt pleased to listen.
blowhard talked about mount Rushmore as if he had saw the presidents to be represented and then carved them himself. epson was intrigued by the story. yet, the most disturbing part of blowhard's story was how he traveled around south dakota.
"i wanted an eagle's eye view," he told epson and his son junior. "i had friends follow me in a couple of jeeps, of course. you always do that when you fly a hot air balloon. but i went up alone. I like to be captain of the ship. I like to control my own destiny, like the eagle himself. I told them where I was going and when i would land. they just had to meet me and be on time.
"there's nothing like the view of mount rushmore from a balloon. from there i went to rapid city, then aberdeen. I decided to fly straight to dakota falls from there. i saw the badlands , herds of buffalo ,acre after acre of farmland, and highways that stretched across the country like black ribbons !, you should have been there with me."
epson was in good mood because he loved a good story. he chuckled quietly and refused to comment about the ridiculousness of blowhard's story.
what was so ridiculous ?
THE BOLD LETTERS MEANS CLUES !
